Padi Ecolodge

Top choice in West Sumatra


Sitting among verdant rice paddies and a flowering tropical garden is this stunning lodge that incorporates a spectacular traditional Minangkabau design with soaring thatched roof, and is fitted with modern comforts and tasteful decor. Given its luxurious feel and spacious rooms featuring balconies overlooking the enchanting countryside, it's very generously priced. There's also a restaurant offering Indonesian staples.

It's a 20-minute walk southwest from the centre of town, or a short jaunt by Grab or Gojek.
